I can't believe it is 2010! So many thoughts and pics to post from the holidays.
But, for today I am just going to do a short list of things I want to accomplish in 2010.
That way I can go back at the end of the year and see how I did.

It is a short list. But, with 3 busy boys and a life that is about to get even busier (more on that later in the month), I need short lists.

1. Spend more time with my God. In doing so, I am reading the entire Bible through. In 90 days. Crazy? Maybe. Serious? Absolutely. I just finished today's reading. So far this year (4 days) I have finished Genesis.

2. Spend more time with my family. I don't want to just be in the room or house with my boys. I want to be more consistently on the floor with them. Building train tracks, playing cars, playing games, reading books, doing puzzles, doing nothing (yeah, right....!) just being together. I don't want to just go along through life with Eric, I want to enjoy life with him by my side. I want to talk more, share more, be one. I want to know my nieces and nephew better. My sisters-in-law better. My brothers (as adults) better. These are the relationships that go with stay with me my entire life. (Sorry family! You are stuck with me till the end!)

3. Spend more time with friends. Again, intentional time. Talking. Sharing life. Being accountable to each other and holding each other to higher standards. Asking the hard questions and being ok with being asked hard questions.
